The Kwikset 405DNL is a very popular leverset. When comparing the Satin Nickel to the Satin Chrome you really do not need to worry about the finish holding up. The only finish that may sometimes fade or show wear is Polished Brass finishes. If you are looking for Polished Brass hardware that will be used outside then you should definitely look for the Lifetime Polished Brass because the finish treatment is handled differently to last through extreme weather and sun. Both the Satin Nickel and Satin Chrome are very durable.

Good UpgradeUpgraded my 1960's vintage handles in my rehab home to these handles. They are a good quality with a lifetime warranty. Easy to install for a DIYer. I would highly recommend.
Further, Handlesets.com customer service is excellent. Shipment was sent promptly. I had one issue with a handle and they sent a replacement out very promptly. I am impressed with the company and how they treat their customers.

Good Product, Great ServiceWe wanted to swap out some closet door handles with ones with locks, to lock up personal belongings to minimize theft temptation by the maids (unfortunately, we have been burned by this before).
We purchased these to match the other door handles in the house, and they look and match perfectly.
The only concern I had is the locking mechanism itself is a bit tight; the key needs to be jiggled a bit to get the lock to latch and unlatch. Since this isn't a highly used lock, the minor inconvenience is not that big a deal.
Overall, very happy with the service. Product is properly described and arrived as promised.

Great UpdateWe purchased all new handles in Venetian Bronze for our new home, to replace the dated brass all over the house. These were easy to install and look great. Also, handlesets.com saved us a ton of money, AND keyed all the exterior handles the same at no extra charge - super convenient!! Couldn't be happier with this site or our purchase here - thanks!

Like it never happenedI locked myself out while my wife was out of town, so I had to bust the old handset with a shovel. Big box stores couldn't help me find a replacement, so I found HandleSets.com quickly. Replacement went in with a breeze, is installed better than the builder did the original if I do say so myself, and my wife is happy 'cause I'm handy. Win win.
